the operational characteristics of gliders makes information provided by radio far less useful in a predictive sense than the same information given by a powered aircraft because gliders don't fly precise tracks or maintain constant altitudes.

This is no one's fault, and it won't be fixed simply by more frequent, more detailed or more "correct" transmissions. 

I have a simple rule for the radio.  I listen as much as possible and I talk as little as I can get away with while still complying with all reasonable rules.
